Got no clue why everyone review bombed this a couple months back. Its like nobody read any of the announcements from the devs. Idiots just hop on a bandwagon with no knowledge of what is going on. At least its back up to mostly positive, but there are heaps of negative reviews saying the game has been abandoned and its not likely those dummies will change their review to positive. This game has huge potential and the devs obviously care about putting out a good product. If you are one of those people who left a negative review thinking this game was abandoned, you are the reason gaming has gone downhill. Rather than dogpile on some indie devs, why dont you do your own damn research and form your own opinions before writing some bs review.

BEWARE! This is very early acces, a lot of stuff is not in yet. It might never be. Look on the forums, there's been a lot downtime since update + questions if there is gonna be funding. But what I've seen gave me so much joy that I just have to support it. This is a little bit niche, so look at a playthrough before you buy

Edit: I said before this was a dead game but after learning about what was going on in the background with the devs I learned that their publishing deal fell through and they have spent the last few months trying to get funding and failed. So kudos to the developer in keeping us informed and he has said he will resume development in jan solo.

Once you get the hang of it, my god does it just devour time. It's an incredibly dope wizard game, worth every cent.

Game lets you be the powerful mage you would like to be. The idea is great, the direction is clear. At this early stage of game, there is not a lot of things that you can do and conquer/destry/build. But in the months of me looking after the updates I can see a constant progress in the "right direction". Try it out, you will most likely not regret it, if you enjoy the gameplay, not the graphics of games.
